Mission Statement: Atlantic Freedom Tour

The purpose of the Atlantic Freedom Tour website is to educate and inform students, and those interested, about the Amistad history and the journey the boat will take starting in the Summer. It is a historical site that will bring awareness to a new generation. The structure of the site should be professional but appealing to students by using pictures and colors (earth and sea tones). It will be able to track the ship on it's journey to important ports. The audience will be able to access information on what events will take place at each location and why it is important to the journey. The site will also have external links that provide further information on numerous topics when necessary. There will be photos, videos, blogs, and other documentation right from the Amistad boat crew members. Interaction will be important to keep viewers coming back, for example e-mailing the student crew questions, along with frequent updates accessible through the main page.
